Great vid. I like my Black Diamonds so far. They have some serious tread.

@DukeWhite04 We'll weight each set and measure their height and diameter as those are indeed important factors in a tires performance and how they affect a machine. What we've found is that most tires continue to increase in weight so they can be used on both ATVs and UTVs. Not good! And lightweight, high performing tires don't sell so goodbye to one of our favorites - the ACT. Everyone is chasing the Bighorn down the heavy, hard, and long-lasting road to lower performance.

Hey, Doug. I'm looking forward to hearing what you find out, I think you should take some mention the weight of some tires compared to others. And I'd be interested to know if any of the tires you thought the machine could have used or/should have had a clutch kit added. Or any other aftermarket parts. I'm pro longevitiy of my bike, so I am concerned about over taxing it. I find it hard to tell what is too much, because there is such a dramatic difference in performance between stock to not.

@carducho Ah yes..... Well, wait until we get into this test a ways and see what we find out. There are several tires that I really like the looks of and am thinking may do well - including the newest Maxxis tires, the Ceros!
We have a set of 12" BHs sitting here so maybe when we come to a really good tire in this test, we'll get a set of 12" and try them against the BHs.
When will you have the testing done

@MegaCANAM800 We're gonna be testing these (and the Polaris' they are on) for a year. But, we'll be updating our findings all along the way.

@MrTyler416 Haven't tried them in a very long time....and don't remember a lot about them ;( I really like the tread pattern. Unfortunately they don't make them in 14" - our test size this time around.

Awesome videos, thanks. I seriously look forward to hearing what you find out. I have been debating on the Terra Cross and the Dirt Commanders for an upgrade from my stock tires on my 2009 Honda Rancher 420 4x4 manual shift ATV. You're findings will go a long way in my decision on which to purchase.

@drdumais We'll keep plugging away - we've been known to irritate but never disappoint.
